As someone with zero experience in strength training, I was looking for a place where I could learn the basics: what to do, how to do it correctly, and why each exercise mattered. Training with Gennaro exceeded every expectation. He was patient, encouraging, and knew exactly how to push me. If you're intimidated by the idea of starting to exercise or stepping into a gym, don't be. This is the place for you. The entire team, along with other members, made me feel genuinely welcome from day one.
Training with G has been one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had on my fitness journey. He’s the best trainer I’ve ever worked with; patient, encouraging, and consistently motivating. He has a way of making everything feel uncomplicated and approachable, which has made all the difference for me. As someone dealing with back pain, I’ve never felt in better hands. G listens, adapts, and always finds a way to push me while keeping my safety and well-being top of mind. Beyond the workouts, the gym itself is just so special. The people are genuinely kind, and the atmosphere is so warm and welcoming. I’ve never experienced a gym with such a wide range of clients, younger, older, people in great shape, people working to be in better shape, injured or healthy, it feels like being part of a team and it’s remarkable how everyone truly has a place here. I’ve not only grown stronger physically, but my energy and confidence have improved so much thanks to this supportive environment. I’m deeply grateful to G and the entire team for creating a space that makes showing up feel easy and empowering (which I desperately needed). I can’t wrap this without a kudos to Anthony, who might have the most wonderful positive energy I’ve yet to encounter 😊
As someone who’s never managed to stay consistent with fitness on my own, I knew I needed accountability and structure from a personal trainer. I’d bookmarked Functionally Fit on my map years ago for when I felt ready to commit. In July 2024, I took the leap, and six months later, I’m thrilled I did. I even extended my program for another year. From the start, Matt made the intake process easy, assessing my physical abilities and personality before recommending the right trainer. After a second workout just to be sure, he paired me with Gennaro, and it’s been a perfect fit. Gennaro doesn’t do the drill-sergeant routine, which wouldn’t work for me anyway. Instead, he meets me where I am, patiently answers my many questions about form and function, and pushes me to improve while celebrating every PR I hit. When I first started, I felt disconnected from my body, like it was some machine I couldn’t really control. But within six months, I’ve made incredible progress. I can feel a mind-body connection that never existed before, and I’m stronger in ways I didn’t think possible. My confidence is growing, not just physically, but mentally, too. While I’m the one putting in the effort, I couldn’t do this at the same level or with this much belief in myself without Gennaro and Functionally Fit.
I absolutely love training at Functionally Fit. Gennaro is the most professional, knowledgeable, attentive, kind and genuinely caring trainer. He trained me as I was getting ready for my wedding and through all 9 months of my pregnancy. I feel like I had the fastest recovery thanks to Gennaro’s guidance in the preparation of my body. Aside from being a skilled trainer, he genuinely listens and cares about what is going on in my life. I really cherish our conversations during our training sessions.
I’ve been training with Anthony for the past 6 months and have had a great experience working with him. I had an injury that was preventing me from getting into a regular gym routine which is the reason I started coming to Functionally Fit. Anthony did a detailed assessment and designed a program based on what I was looking to achieve while being mindful of my previous injury which was my top concern. He is extremely attentive, checks in constantly, and makes adjustments to the program as needed. I’ve seen great results in just 6 months and look forward to continuing to work with him. I’d highly recommend Anthony for anyone looking to get started with a personal trainer.
